Topic: I've noticed something.

Posted under Off Topic

I'm not sure if this is in the right place or not. Sorry. Anyway, I've noticed that people complain about sources not linking to the image and they change the source. Since the option is there to add more than one source, why don't people do that more often? Linking the submission and the artist's page might be better in the long run.

It is a relatively new feature that we hope users will start using for exactly that

That would explain why I never noticed it before. That is a great addition to the site features.

I don't see the point of having a link to the artist's page. You can usually reach it from the submission picture.

It's because artists often nuke their uploads and we get nothing but a bad link

Or because they delete one upload and re-upload a better quality version. Or because they have multiple sites.
